Some sad news to pass on - RIP Bossman

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Great way to put it. I shared many PMs with Steve and he's easily one of the nicest people I've ever met through a message board.

Nice signature man, very appropriate. He was a very nice person from what I gathered. This is truly saddening.

Yeah first off Dash thanks for letting us know.

RIP Bossman! He was one of the few that no matter how often or little you posted here HE WAS YOUR FRIEND. Type of person you wished you could have met in person.

 

[mattola]

just not going to be the same around here without him.

I hear that. Guy had a great calming ability as the mod and came out with some good posts.

RIP Boss. I know you'll be missed here, I can only imagine how much you'll be missed by your friends and family.

This such a sad day. Steve was truly one of the good ones. I considered myself blessed to have known him. I was lucky enough to have talked with him a few times over the phone and he helped me through some tough times. I just can't put into words how sad I am right now. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. Rest in peace Steve. You'll be greatly missed by all who knew you.

Huge loss. This board will not be the same without him.

RIP Bossman. You were one of the greats.

Very saddened to hear about his passing. SportsHoopla really won't be the same without him. I didn't need to meet him in person to know that he was a great guy. RIP BOSSMAN

The world lost a good man. It was always fun Steve. We'll miss you, but in a way it's nice to know that you won't have to suffer any more stays in the hospital. Even if they did have sexy nurses. It's a damn shame Buffalo couldn't bring home a championship before you passed. RIP buddy. My life is better for having known you.

Absolutely. He always reaped what he sowed, and all of it good.

I'm speechless.

The fact that so many of us are gutted over this news despite having never met the man is telling about how much character Boss always showed. I'm gonna miss him.

We all know he's chasing kids off the big front yard in the sky.

R.I.P. Boss. Hope to see you on the other side.
